Life is a journey which we begin at birth. Each of us begin our journey in a particular place and time but we all travel on the road called life which is a gift from God. On this journey each day we learn something/s hopefully including some wisdom which brings us happiness, joy and peace.

Contradictions within
Yes, that's what I am feeling most days now. A part of me wants to get really aggressive and look for a call, any call, any type, any where and just find work and get back to being busy - working, serving, and 'doing' life. At the same time a part of me is saying, "be calm and continue enjoying the free time God has given you," support Will in his ministry and enjoy this time of no-business. So, I pray.
God is not speaking to me in ways that I want him to. But then when did he ever? He always answers my questions and prayers- I know. There was not one prayer I made that God did not answer. Am I praying the right prayers? of course, there is no wrong prayer. Lenten season continues and, as I travel on this journey of Lent, I continue to pray and listen to what God is saying......I pray and hope that I will hear Him when He speaks to me.
Here is my prayer for the day:
Psalms 119:10-18
With my whole heart I seek you:
do not let me stray from your commandments.
I treasure your Word in my heart,
so that I may not sin against you.
Blessed are you, O Lord;
teach me your statues.
With my lips I declare all the ordinances of your mouth.
I delight in the way of your decrees
as much as in all riches.
I will mediate on your precepts,
and fix my eyes on your ways.
I will delight in your statues;
I will not forget your Word.
Deal bountifully with your servant,
so that I may live and observe your Word.
Open my eyes, so that I may behold
wondrous things out of your law.
